A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

It still has to be an official act. I don't know how that works.
No one does. Roberts conveniently left out how he would determine what acts are "official" from his opinion.
Republican acts are official. Democrat acts are not official.
Article II Section 3 says the president shall take care to execute the laws faithfully. I do not see how a president could issue an official illegal order.
It doesn't matter. He cannot be found criminally liable now. The law does not apply to him. Fuck SCOTUS
